Good morning!

We’ve got 2 best bets picked out this evening!

Game Overview

 Spread: Cavaliers -6.5

 Location: Portland

 Cavaliers Record: 57-14 (27-9 on the road)

 Blazers Record: 32-40 (20-17 at home)

 Injuries:

 Blazers: Missing key starters — Ayton, Grant, and Williams III

Matchup Analysis

 Cleveland is elite on the road and playing solid defense, allowing just 112.9 ppg over their last 10 games.

 Portland is overmatched talent-wise without key starters and is barely breaking even at home.

 Shooting efficiency favors Cleveland, who shoots 49.2% from the field (vs. Portland’s 44.3% over the last 10).

 Paint advantage: Mobley and the Cavs dominate in the paint, an area weakened by Ayton and Williams being out.

Best Bet:

Cavaliers -6.5

Cleveland has more talent, is much healthier, and has shown they can win on the road. Portland is thin in the frontcourt and will likely struggle to keep up for 4 quarters.
